Safe Life A400: A New Look for an N95 Respirator
Safe Life Corporation (San Diego, CA) recently released a new respirator that looks and feels more like a traditional surgical face mask. We received a copy of the A400 respirator for review and spent about a half hour wearing it to see how it feels.
The new Safe Life A400 N95 Respirator can filter 95 percent of the airborne particles that can carry viruses, bacteria and other pathogens, while looking and feeling similar to a normal face mask. It's light, durable and easy to use. Safe Life made this respirator by infusing iodine into a polymer, making it safe for wearing while oxidizing microorganisms to death.
The disposable mask comes in two sizes (S/M and M/L) and is said to be cost effective, though there is no information about the price.
Doing activities around the house with the Safe Life N95 Respirator was fine, until 30 minutes after wearing the mask it became slightly uncomfortable as the neck straps are quite tight and pull the unit firmly onto the face. Another marginal issue was with the padded metal band that creates a seal around the nose area. It was a bit rough and could use softer support padding.
Other than the mask being slightly irritating, the Safe Life N95 Respirator does the job, and it's been certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to be a true N95 class respirator.
Overall, we can say that Safe Life created an innovative product that does what the mask was supposed to do. It comes in a small package, it is relatively comfortable, and is a bit less conspicuous than traditional respirators.

Symphony Transdermal Continuous Glucose Monitoring System Going to Clinical Trials
Franklin, Massachusetts based Echo Therapeutics has announced the initiation of a clinical study testing the viability of the firm's Symphony™ tCGM product. Last year we wrote about Echo's success at pre-clinical trials of the system. MassDevice has reported that it cost the company about $60 million for the development of the system to get to this point.
"We are extremely pleased to take this next step forward in the development work on our one piece biosensor, a critical component of Symphony, our needle-free, continuous glucose monitoring technology," stated Patrick T. Mooney, M.D., Chairman and CEO of Echo Therapeutics. "As we described previously, this next generation biosensor introduces new materials and a more effective geometrical construction designed to be one-piece and replaces the prior prototype two-piece biosensor used in earlier clinical trials. We believe that this biosensor will demonstrate improved performance and reliability and we look forward to confirming this in this clinical trial in Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics."Echo's pilot clinical study will enroll patients with diabetes (either Type 1 or Type 2) and will compare data obtained from its Symphony tCGM System with the "gold standard" YSI Glucose Analyzer. The study will collect approximately 900 data pairs to be used in the analyses. Reference glucose measurements will be made at 15 minute intervals for 24 hours with the study data blinded to study subjects and study personnel.

Toumaz Sensium Digital Plaster Goes on Trial
Toumaz Technology out of Abingdon, UK has announced it partnered with the Imperial College London to perform a clinical trial on the company's "Digital Plaster" vital signs monitor. The technology, which we covered in the past (see flashbacks below), allows for continuous monitoring and wireless transmission of temperature, heart and respiratory rates to help speed up workflow and get rid of some of the cables.
The focus of the trial will be to verify that the physiological data acquired by the digital plaster system within a clinical setting is equivalent to that acquired using current gold-standard monitors in use in hospitals – equipment that is often bulky, expensive and fixed, such that patient mobility is impaired. The Sensium digital plaster is wireless and unobtrusive, meaning that patients can remain ambulatory in hospital while still being monitored. This flexibility allows continuous vital sign monitoring to be extended to patients who would not normally be monitored, thereby offering the potential to increase patient safety. The Sensium digital plaster is a disposable device with a working lifetime of several days, after which the plaster is disposed of in the appropriate waste receptacle.The trial is being conducted in three phases, an initial phase with non-patient volunteers followed by two patient study groups: patients recovering from surgery, and patients with specific medical conditions in the general wards.
The Sensium digital plaster is targeted for use in clinical monitoring applications such as acute care, general ward environments, tele-care, chronic disease monitoring, and in care home settings. For all these applications, disposability provides convenience, simplicity and patient comfort while ensuring infection control is maintained to the highest standards. Powered by thin batteries, body-worn Sensium-enabled monitors deliver clinical-quality data and intelligently integrate it into an electronic medical record via a network built on Toumaz’s power-optimised wireless operating and networking system, Nano Sensor Protocol (NSP).

IEEE Spectrum: Flexible Microsystems Deliver Drugs Through the Ear
In the latest IEEE Spectrum, Jeffrey T. Borenstein of the Charles Stark Draper Laboratory in Cambridge, Mass. and the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary (MEEI) in Boston gives a detailed overview of the innovative drug delivery device his team is building. The implantable system is soft and stretchable, and it uses embedded microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and microfluidics to control drug delivery on a tight schedule over long periods of time.
A quote from the article:
Our system, which is still under development, consists of a programmable micropump powered by a small battery and controlled by an electronic circuit. It pulses precise quantities of a drug from a small reservoir into the inner ear. A flow sensor meters the delivery and sends out an alert if anything goes wrong. What we have so far is about the size of a D-cell battery, but we're working to get it down to the volume of a single AA battery, which ought to be small enough to suit most patients. The device's reservoir would hold enough medication for about one year. We've already tested the system on guinea pigs, and our results show that it can successfully deliver medication to the inner ear without damaging hearing.

Passive IR Monitoring of Breathing for More Comfortable Sleep Studies
A collaboration between researchers from University of Houston and University of Texas Health Science Center has developed a new method to perform sleep studies that minimized the amount of equipment that has to be tethered to the patient. The biggest impediment is the tube placed over the nose that monitors airflow. The researchers created an infrared camera monitoring system that can observe breathing passively and quantify the airflow without any tubes.
Here's an NSF interview with the principal scientists of the study explaining their work:

Delivery Method for Iomai's Transcutaneous Vaccine
We've previously covered Iomai Corp's (now part of Intercell) transcutaneous vaccination technology, with the idea being that if you're able to vaccinate patients through their skin, you can take advantage of the high density of Langerhans cells in the epidermis to activate an amplified immune response. Also, since transcutaneous vaccination does not involve systemic exposure, you're able to use more potent immune stimulants. These factors, in addition to it being needle-less, make transcutaneous vaccination an appealing option because you need less vaccine for an equal immune response. Additionally, having the vaccine in this dry, patch form also allows it to last much longer without refrigeration (possibly up to six months).
Application of the vaccine, however, first requires you to scrape off some of the keratinized epithelium to gain access to the Langerhans cells. This abrasion needs to be consistent, painless, and easy enough that it could be self-administered. At TEDMED, we've heard from IDEO's CEO Tim Brown, whose design firm was hired to develop the application technique for the transcutaneous vaccine patches. IDEO came up with a band aid looking device with a bulls eye and an attached tab. Pressing at the center and pulling the tab draws an abrasive strip across the skin, as well as leaves an ink mark to show where the vaccine patch should be placed. The application device and patch is also made using only standard processes and materials so they'd be easily manufactured in developing countries.
The administration device and patch are currently in phase two clinical trials for pandemic influenza.

Needle Free Insulin Delivery from PICOSULIN
Amy Tenderich from DiabetesMine spoke with Thierry Navarro, co-founder of PICOSULIN, a Geneva, Switzerland company developing a patch and an insulin pump with an unusually open R&D process.
A snippet:
"We think differently from the traditional way of keeping R&D secret. We have perfected our technology, and we're disclosing the benefits. Now we want to try to get feedback from all the over world. We're using a website survey to capture input from Europe, Asia and the US, " Thierry says.
Here's more about the technology from the product page:
The simplicity of the system is based on the use of a plastic micro pump which is connected to an ultra precise mechanical system (patent pending) capable of delivering a bolus of 25nl (0.0025U) that is 20 times more precise than any of the existing competing patches on the market which deliver 500nl (0.05U).What’s more, the micro pump uses a volumetric pump mechanism capable of aspirating insulin directly from any type or brand of PenFill cartridge.
Performance aside, it has the major advantages of its very small size and modular design: the “PicoPatch” is a wearable patch only 0.59 inches (15 mm) thick, loaded with a standard PenFill cartridge containing 3ml of insulin.

FDA Panel Recommends Bronchial Thermoplasty Approval for Select Patients
According to Dow Jones Newswires, an FDA panel has recommended the approval of Alair® bronchial thermoplasty device from Sunnyvale, California based Asthmatx, Inc. Designed to reduce the amount of smooth muscles in the walls of small to medium size airways, the device will likely be indicated for drug-resistant adult cases of severe asthma. We have reported extensively on this technology, including on positive results from the Asthma Intervention Research 2 (AIR2) Trial, a 300 patient strong study reported in May, that has showed reduction in extreme asthma attacks by 32 percent, and 84 percent reduction in emergency room trips in patients s/p treatment.
The device--the Alair Bronchial Thermoplasty System--if approved would be the first non-drug treatment approved by the FDA. The product is made by Asthmatx Inc., a closely held firm based in Sunnyvale, Calif., and is designed to be used in adult asthma patients whose disease isn't well controlled on both short- and long-acting medications.Specifically, the panel voted 6 to 1 that the treatment be approved with conditions, including a registry of patients treated to track the long-term safety and effectiveness of the device. The FDA typically follows the advice of its panels but isn't required to. If approved, the device could be on the market during the first half of 2010.
The FDA noted that about 22 million Americans have asthma and about 4,000 people die each year "in spite of optimal medical management." About 500,000 people are hospitalized with asthma exacerbations annually in the U.S.

New PAP System from Philips Respironics Announced
Philips Respironics has released its new PAP (positive air pressure) sleep system that promises to overcome some serious side effects of other similar devices on the market. As we wrote yesterday, we had a chance to try out the device at Philips Respironics' newly opened factory in suburban Pittsburgh, PA.
Here's finally a more formal description from Philips about the features in this device:
With new advanced event detection software and expanded reporting capabilities, Philips Respironics Sleep Therapy System has the ability to recognize and report when a patient may be experiencing symptoms beyond OSA. A sophisticated three-layer algorithm distinguishes between obstructed and clear airway apneas and periodic breathing, such as Cheyne-Stokes Respiration. Medical professionals now have easy access to sleep assessment parameters typically found on diagnostic equipment.These respiratory events can be verified by looking at detailed patient flow waveform data. There are multiple options for data transfer, including standard SD cards and new wireless and wired modem connections. The devices now include on-board memory storage for six months of compliance data (7 and 30 day averages) and five days of patient flow waveforms.
The Web-based platform of EncoreAnywhere makes it quick and simple to obtain timely, accurate patient information and instantly change prescriptions or communicate from a secure-access Web site. Updates to the device are automatic, and summary and daily detail reports of therapy data -- including patient flow and event reports -- are arranged by time frame. The “Best 30” reports the best 30 consecutive days of greater than four-hour sessions. This information enables the provider to intervene more quickly and more effectively and instantly capture patient compliance data needed for reimbursement.
Adding to its contemporary design, lighted LEDs and a new LCD dial and push-button interface make the device simple to use and operate. About the size of a clock radio (7" L x 5.5" W x 4" H; 18 cm L x 14 cm W x 10 cm H), components are built in to maximize patient comfort and device performance. The device is engineered with new Dry Box technology and a cleverly designed water chamber to keep water only where needed, while delivering consistent humidification. A technology breakthrough, System One Humidity Control, adjusts automatically for changes in room temperature and room humidity. Like cruise control in automobiles, patients select the desired humidity level in the mask, and advanced sensors gather the data required by the device to maintain these levels to enhance comfort and prevent rainout in changing environmental conditions.
Another major comfort enhancement, System One Resistance Control, adjusts pressure delivery to optimize comfort with every Philips Respironics mask. Beyond leak reporting, the device is set up to compensate for resistance characteristics caused by the various mask options available and operate as an integrated system.
